Furnishing a living room in style and comfort on a tight budget seems like a daunting task, right? But we assure you that this is nothing more than a myth. Today's widest range of inexpensive, but high-quality finishing materials and furniture allows you to cope with the goal. We have prepared a number of tips, supplemented by photos, according to which you can easily come up with an economy class living room interior in a modern style.

An example of a modern, stylish and affordable living room.

How to save money?

When arranging an economy class living room, budget cuts should not occur at the expense of the quality of finishes, furniture and other “stuffing”. You can save a lot of money with these simple rules:

  1. Make a detailed design of the room, think over the decoration, furniture, textiles, lighting, decor.
  2. Don't make rash, emotional purchases. Often things bought out of boredom or from overwhelming emotions turn out to be inappropriate, and therefore unnecessary.
  3. Take the time to research prices online and at local hardware stores. Sometimes, even with delivery, the cost will be lower than when buying in an offline store. But in this case, it is better to familiarize yourself with the material in advance so as not to get a pig in a poke.
  4. Find a quality (!) replacement for expensive materials.
  5. Take a closer look at the assortment of a domestic manufacturer, as well as study the products of small and still unknown firms.
  6. Sometimes it makes sense to buy materials on promotions and discounts. Usually there are few promotional goods, but if you need material for accents, for example, such a solution would be the most rational.
  7. Refuse to use large prints and patterns - the consumption of such material is 20-30% more due to the need to "fit" the patterns.

Another non-obvious way to save money is to choose a versatile, neutral design. It will be relevant from year to year and will not get bored, so you will not have to start repairs often.

Choice of finishes

The lion's share of the budget for interior design is decoration. Consider what inexpensive and quality materials can be used to decorate the room.

for walls

When choosing wall decoration, you can get confused in the range of materials. Therefore, below we will consider the most optimal options for price / quality:

  1. Wallpaper. The most familiar, affordable for every budget and taste, a popular way to finish the walls. There are both very cheap types ( paper wallpaper), and too expensive for an economy living room (fabric, cork, glass). Therefore, vinyl wallpapers remain the most “traveling” type for many years - relatively inexpensive, resistant to fading and moisture, soundproofing, durable (up to 20 years). Huge assortment vinyl wallpaper allows you to choose an option for any interior.
  2. Painting. To decorate the living room, it is important to choose paints with the most gentle, non-chemical composition - on water based. If there is a need to hide slight irregularities and wall defects, you can purchase textured paints. Glossy and matte varieties are suitable for flat surfaces. The advantage of painting is that there is no need to perfectly fit the corners of the room.
  3. PVC panels. Practical, easy to maintain and install finishing material.
  4. MDF panels. They allow you to create any interior, durable and easy to install, resistant to fungal damage, with proper care they will last at least 15 years.

For ceiling

In the design of ceilings, stretch films and plasterboard structures are traditionally used. These materials are used both in expensive and more modest interiors, the difference is only in the complexity of the design itself and the presence of additional elements.

Matte, single-layer stretch film without frills looks very appropriate.

A few tips:

  • in small room should use a single level stretch ceiling or drywall construction, since complex options will only make the space heavier;
  • in spacious living rooms, using the design of the ceiling, you can divide the space into zones (for example, guest and work). Layered structures can also perform an exclusively decorative function;
  • in medium-sized living rooms, it is allowed to use a small second level around the perimeter of the room with the installation of spotlights in it;
  • a great idea would be to use a glossy stretch film - a mirror shine contributes visual expansion space;
  • a working, but not expensive option is to paint a plasterboard ceiling or just a plastered surface, but the latter in this case must be perfectly even, otherwise the paint will highlight all the defects.

For floor

In question inexpensive finishes gender selection will not be as wide. The clear leader here is linoleum. Today's assortment allows you to choose options for natural wood, tile, stone. Linoleum is easy to install and maintain, there is no need to thoroughly level the floor under it. Choosing an option high class strength (32-34) coating will serve you for many years.

Important! When overhauling the floor, you should not save on the screed - this is the basis that ensures durability and good service to the rest flooring. If the screed is not made correctly, bumps will be visible, and the parquet or laminate will begin to creak.

Linoleum under a tree, visually not different from a laminate.


Also possible option flooring is carpet. But in this case, it is worth carefully weighing all the pros and cons. Quality carpet It will cost relatively more, well, it will last up to 10 years. A cheaper option may lose its appearance a few years after the flooring. In both cases, it is almost impossible to remove stains from this coating, therefore it must be handled with extreme care. And given that the living room is a common room, this is not always possible.

Carpet.

Budget furniture

In the matter of furnishing, it is difficult to give clear and universal recommendations, because each family will have its own needs, opportunities and preferences. It is also necessary to take into account the actual possibilities: if the living room is part-time and the bedroom in one-room apartment, it will need to be furnished according to completely different principles. The same rule works if you need to equip the living room workspace Or a play area for a child.

  1. Decide on the functions of the room. Will it be a room exclusively for hanging out with family and friends, or will it need to equip the sleeping and working area.
  2. Estimate how long a person is usually at home, whether you accept big companies friends.
    Traditionally, the main element of the guest room is the sofa. It also acts as the main component of the soft corner. Usually, the sofa can be two- or four-seater, complete with a pair of armchairs and a coffee table.
  3. If the sofa does not need to be turned into a sleeping place, it does not make sense to spend money on expensive model with a good folding mechanism.
  4. When buying, pay attention to the upholstery material - in this case, microfiber will the best choice for price/quality.

Tip: regardless of the area and configuration of the room, corner models always fit well into the room.


Corner sofa options

If desired, if you have skills and tools, you can make some living room furniture yourself, for example.

Pallet furniture can be very stylish.

An interesting option would also be a modular model - such a sofa consists of several blocks that can serve as independent items, or be assembled into one big marvel.

Modular design in the unfolded form.

original and nice solution for the living room - purchase of wicker garden furniture. Such a solution will save a decent amount, and the interior will only benefit from this!

Wicker furniture can organically fit into the interior of the living room.


It is also extremely important to provide a storage system in the living room. Previously, this function was performed by bulky, massive walls, but now there are more ergonomic and modern solutions. Again, we suggest you pay attention to modular kits. These are entire lines of furniture made in the same style. At the same time, all elements are perfectly combined with each other. Thus, you yourself can choose the necessary set of items for the living room, which will already form a beautiful ensemble.

Example modular furniture for the living room.

Textile

Adding textiles to the interior is the easiest and most effective way to create coziness, comfort, homely atmosphere, style. In the living room, the main textile element is the window curtains. Now the trend of abandoning any textiles on the windows is gaining popularity. However, for residents of the lower floors, or for apartments with south-facing windows, such a solution is not possible.

Curtains with a simple pattern in the interior of the living room.


Some tips to help save money on curtains:
  1. Make a cornice not along the entire length of the wall with windows, but exclusively along window openings with an increase of 20 cm on each side. Thus, instead of a cornice up to 5 m long, you will get a structure up to 2.5 m long.
  2. Choose Turkish-made tulle, not Italian. Experts assure that there is no difference in the quality of these two products, in contrast to the quality of curtain fabrics.
  3. Refuse the curtains and decorate the window only with transparent tulle. This option is ideal for interiors in a minimalist and Scandinavian style.
  4. Instead of classic curtains, choose Roman blinds. They can be made from any fabric. By the way, fabrics with prints are better suited for Roman construction, as the print will not get lost in the folds.

In the selection of photos below, we give examples of various window designs in the interior of a living room in a modern economy class style:

  • blankets. They can be thrown over a sofa or armchairs.
  • Overview of modern styles

    To more clearly understand how you can equip a living room inexpensively and stylishly, here are examples of interiors in different modern styles:


    Such a way stylish design guest rooms should not be limited by the budget. Our selection of photos clearly demonstrated that, with little money, the interior of an economy class living room in a modern style is quite possible to equip with a relatively small financial cost.

    Video: actual designs living room 2018.

    Saying the phrase "economy class", we often represent a certain a budget option interior design with a very modest finish and a few boring details. Is it so? Let's figure it out. Variety, quality and prices for modern Construction Materials allow you to create original and stylish interior apartments with quite small financial investments(provided there is no need for major repairs).
    If you have new window frames, fresh “carpentry”, normal floors, tolerable tiles in the bathroom and kitchen, then to update the apartment you will need:

  • new wallpaper or wall paint;
  • materials for decorating the ceiling;
  • textiles for curtains, upholstered furniture and (possibly) floors;
  • lighting;
  • decor;
  • if necessary - new elements of furniture.

  • So, we begin to update our small apartment.

    Walls

    Tired of flowers, leaves and diamonds? Take it off immediately! And we will paste new ones - stylish monochrome wallpapers. Gray, light green, golden, nude, ivory, terracotta - there are a lot of fashionable color options. You don't like monotony? Dilute it with a small insert from 3D photo wallpapers that are very relevant today - it will “revive” the room, while zoning it.
    Ordinary room in old Khrushchev, a dilapidated sofa, but... It was under its chocolate textiles that the curtains were chosen, and the light green shades of the walls, tulle and, of course, photowalls miraculously updated the living room and became its highlight. Inexpensive? Yes. Stylish? Quite.

    Ceiling

    I hope you understand that we are now talking about a real economy class, that is, about repair and design, the implementation of which does not require the involvement (or at all at a minimum) of specialists. Therefore, we will consider options for finishing ceilings only those that residents are able to reproduce on their own. If the room has a flat ceiling without cracks, then the most the best option it will be stained with acrylic matte paint. This action does not require special special knowledge and costs, and the surface, painted in colors that shade the walls, will look fresh and advantageous.
    light olive, milk chocolate and white - a harmonious combination colors in small room visually increases the space, and the original module with coffee beans clearly indicates the design concept. What to do if the ceiling is uneven or cracked? Call the masters? Not necessary. Use foam or polystyrene boards, cork or bamboo wallpaper for the ceiling - these materials will hide all the bumps.
    Do you think this is expensive stucco? No, ordinary seamless ceiling tiles that are easy to stick even on uneven surfaces. In addition, it is perfectly washable, can be dyed and quite durable.

    Floor

    If the colors of the laminate are tired, and there is no money for a replacement, then let's cover it with textiles. And do not think that the carpets on the floor are trite and old-fashioned: some interiors just need a warm floor covering.
    See how relevant the carpet is in this room - a soft square miraculously fits into the style of the room, marking a cozy seating area. Another good budget option can be the purchase of carpet and its laying "under the baseboard" (completely covering the floor). Monochromatic or multi-color coating - it's up to you, but do not forget that there should not be many bright spots.
    Pearl shades of walls and textiles in combination with dark gray carpet - in the photo. Please note that a very practical and short-haired coating has been chosen, which will undoubtedly last a long time, even if there are small children in the family.

    Decor

    The usual decor: paintings, vases, installations, figurines - please, but in moderation. Do not clutter up the space, because we are trying to create a stylish interior, not a junk shop. If the main style of the apartment is minimalism, then the frame for portraits should also be concise; if a loft idea is chosen, then gilded amphoras on the shelves will be out of place; beware of decorating the living room-modern with the works of fans of cubism.
    A room decorated in modern animalistic motifs - in the photo. Skin on the floor, zebras on the accent wall sofa cushions a la giraffe and only two accessories - floor and table wooden vases of deliberately rough work. Stylish, discreet and perfectly complements the main design idea this interior.

    Lighting

    Light sources play a big role in the overall surroundings of the room, so sometimes it is enough to change just one sconce, and the surrounding space will be transformed. But, again, taste and intuition will help you - lighting devices should complement, and not overshadow the general idea.
    Spotlights visually pushed the walls of a fairly narrow studio, an unusual chandelier is suitable for anyone standard ceiling(in the photo - tension), and three small hanging ceiling lights perfectly illuminate and separate the desktop from the recreation area. Stylish, functional and inexpensive - this is the motto of the modern economy class. Think it over, read our advice and start acting, because any self-respecting person deserves an inexpensive, but cozy and beautiful apartment that you want to go into after the bustle of the working day.

    Not all people can afford a spacious apartment or big house, but this does not detract from the desire for comfort and graceful life. On the contrary, the design private rooms, including living rooms, is only becoming more relevant. Designers have developed a number of techniques to help deal with this problem.

    Peculiarities

    In the living room of 18 sq. m (this figure is conditional, in reality it can be a little more or a little less) it is undesirable to put such furniture, the protruding edges of which take up additional space. The solution to the problem is the combination of the kitchen and the hall, but this step needs to be carefully considered, to take measures against the spread of bad odors.

    Even if the budget option is chosen, You need to be more careful when choosing colors and their combinations with each other.

    It is recommended to focus on multifunctional solutions in the interior, as it is more attractive and aesthetically pleasing, and also allows you to at least partially solve the problem of the eternal shortage of space in the "Khrushchev" or in the apartment of a panel house.

    Even the best classical compositions are noticeably inferior to the living room, furnished in a modern style, which is much more practical and rational than the old-fashioned one.

    Zoning

    In addition to choosing a style, a certain division into zones should also be taken into account. In most typical houses, the central rooms immediately have whole line functions, and it is desirable to implement each of them in a certain part of the room. If there is sufficient space, the living room is separated from other rooms, and then the guest part itself is separated from the recreational part by zoning. The main design decisions, in this case, are a visually prominent carpet or a sharp change in the type of floor covering.

    If you don’t like such a scheme, then you can split the space into shares with various wall decorations or columns and installations. According to designers, the best points for zoning the hall in two-room apartment- areas around the TV and bed. A more beautiful and romantic solution at the same time is the use of curtains and curtains, screens.

    An important condition for success is maintaining a stylistic match between the two separated parts of the room. White curtains look good in combination with expressive yellow walls, and the use of lamps and paintings on the walls helps to emphasize the comfort of the room.

    Partitions are also capable of separating the guest area from the bedroom, and such a step turns out to be the cheapest.

    Sometimes the living room needs to be visually separated from the kitchen, and the circle possible solutions big enough. It should be remembered that using arches, two-level ceilings and floors, as well as columns, makes sense only if the height of the shared rooms is large enough. Regardless of the footage, such a move is unacceptable if small children or elderly people live in the house. A cardinal break can be made with both blind and equipped interior doors partitions.

    Surface decor

    Window blocks can be arbitrarily beautiful and elegant, but to give them the necessary completeness, you need to use curtains. The only exceptions are interiors in the spirit of hi-tech and minimalism, but even short curtains can be inserted into them if you don’t like a fully open window. You can add coziness to a square-shaped living room by hanging carpets on the walls. Contrary to popular belief, this can create a completely modern and rational interior. The disadvantage of this measure is the excessive concentration of dust.

    Use accessories to make the space more comfortable handmade, but when the goal is to evoke a sense of gloss and luxury, you need to use a decor with a glossy sheen that is easy to remember.

    Tapestries and woven panels are often alternatives to carpets. Candlesticks help bring a touch of romanticism into the atmosphere. When the interior is designed in a loft style or in a different urban style, such an element of decor as paintings by contemporary artists or large-format posters is attractive. You can choose the plot to your taste though best solution is an artistic photograph.

    Stucco design can be beautiful and original. If you take not classic gypsum solutions, but modern ones (based on polyurethane), you will even be able to decorate the space in the spirit of neoclassicism or Victorian style. Moreover, such a solution helps to reduce the time of overhaul. Imitation of stucco elements is no worse in appearance than real blocks from gypsum, and its cost is significantly less.

    When selecting decor elements, attention is also paid to the purpose of using a certain area in the room. So, it makes sense to put plasma panels, large aquariums, art canvases (both classical and contemporary artists) opposite the guest accommodations. A good alternative to such solutions is often a fake fireplace, a miniature karaoke stage, and a decorative wall. Replace paintings if you don't want to match them or find it difficult to make a decision, you need mirrored plates.

    The selection of material, regardless of the footage of the room, should be linked to the main motive that you are trying to bring into the room. Appearance finishing material and decor should be stylistically the same.

    So, when all the efforts of the designer are aimed at giving originality, at emphasizing it, then a good step is to use natural stone or its skillful reproduction.

    In an environment dictated by ecological style, it is recommended to use a vertically landscaped wall, but always only one.

    By the way, about the walls. Empty surfaces behind sofas often inspire anxiety in people. It seems that this design problem is very difficult to solve. Designers offer the following win-win moves:

    • the use of modular paintings;
    • watch, the appearance of which repeats general concept rooms;
    • a shelf made of durable tempered glass, on which hand-made objects are placed;
    • small musical instrument on the original type of suspension;
    • installation, developed according to an individual project.

    As in any other room, in a modest living room, a black and white photograph of one of the household turns out to be an attractive element of decor. You need to choose wisely so that the angle is good, and general form did not cease to please after a few months. Print the image in fragments, and now a good replacement for industrial photo wallpapers is ready.

    And if you do not want to see yourself and your loved ones, then use any other silhouette shot, choosing it just as carefully.

    Speaking of ready-made decorating elements, it is worth mentioning decorative panels. Narrow types are especially good, which are brought to the ceiling in two or three stripes, mixed in series with the usual wallpaper or textured plasters. This technique creates a feeling of elongated walls, especially when narrow mirrors are also used. Any other material can also be used, enhancing its appeal with carefully chosen textures or visual effects.

    Furnishings

    The use of furniture in the living room does not have rigid standards. Moreover, every manufacturer creates kits, focusing on their ideas about the ideal. This applies not only appearance, but also of a certain composition. In a rectangular and square living room, in a room of any other shape, modern designers recommend placing such interior items that are ergonomic, easily move to a new place if necessary, and perform at least two functions.

    The rooms where you are going to relax, watch movies and television broadcasts involve the use of a soft group.

    If you do not want to use sofas, armchairs and pouffes in high quality, then the dominant role should be given to the home theater, placing seats around it.

    Living rooms combined with dining rooms have furniture built around dining groups. In any case, you should look at furniture options equipped with rollers or wheels. They allow you to quickly change the composition if the need arises. What categorically should not be even with the most classic living room format is the usual large-sized “wall” that reaches the very ceiling.

    Systems formed by lightweight modules look much better. In addition, they are more practical to use. An even more avant-garde (and therefore less acceptable) type is constructions with glass. Total modern options there are already several hundred, and choosing a wall that suits you is not difficult.

    Maintaining traditions when choosing classical style important, but it is worth considering that truly traditional cabinet furniture can be bought only for a substantial amount of money. But there is a way out. This is a contemporary style, which allows you to fit furniture products into any interior. It is recommended to “arrange” both upholstered and cabinet furniture initially on the plan in order to prevent blunders. Correcting them will require significant time and additional costs. Corner interior items simultaneously perform three key functions:

    • decorative;
    • functional;
    • delimiting.

    At the same time, their undoubted advantage is maximum space saving. capacity corner cabinets compartment type is large in comparison with direct products of comparable size, and this is important for a limited area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe living room. If you want to have a room with a fireplace, then it is not enough to ensure the compatibility of furniture with it.

    Selection should begin with the definition optimal style, and it may not coincide with the dominant style. Classic variant hearth will remain popular, in demand even decades later.

    Lighting

    The ready-made version of lighting that builders leave behind does not suit everyone. Sometimes it's too simple. There is no individuality, no zest here at all. Before buying and installing lighting fixtures you need to take into account both the design side and the reliability of communications. Complicated electrical calculations almost always required, and in accordance with their results, decide which ideas can be implemented and which cannot.

    If you are looking to create unique style your apartment and add a twist to the familiar interior, and the budget is a problem, then take a look at inexpensive examples of how you can create comfort and at the same time not spend fabulous sums of money on ennobling your own home.
